I have a in law that is in prison there. She was in prison near Knoxville for a few years. I don't know when they moved her.

The way it should be sounded, it was a cakewalk at the prison near Knoxville. But if I had to guess, a prison near Memphis would be very diverse, and and hell for whitie.

Does anyone work there or know someone in prison there? I'm not close to them and it's a nine hour drive to visit. Im mostly just curious.

That's not typically how state prisons work. They're usually classified by security levels and such without regard to where the inmates are from.

I meant it's probably hell going from a mostly white prison to a mostly black prison. Hell for a white person anyway.


Also  Memphis has a higher murder rate than Chicago. The general population at each prison is probably a lot different.

Yes I think that's the one, in Henning.

It looks like they split a all men's prison into a men's and a women's prison. About a year ago.

It was a men max. Sec and a gen. Pop. Prison. Now it's a men's max sec and a women's prison.

It's pretty much all the worst parts of the bible combined; no seriously, it's just like that. Ask anybody in corrections what it's like inside a woman's prison and they'll either go all thousand yard stare and shit or they'll curl up into the fetal position and cry. You can always tell someone who works inside of one because they have a faint hint of cheap bourbon and lifeless eyes. And before you ask I'm being serious.

Maybe it's coming back around on her. She's done everyone she's ever known wrong. Pretty much the worst person I know.


There's a lot of mental problems also. She can't say a sentence without a lie in it. It's so bad I think it's possible she believes the shit she says. She even told people she had cancer to get out of a bill once.


She's been in Prison about 5 years now.

I know a guy who did some maintenance work at that facility.

He said that they pretty much cat-called him all day long about what they'd do to him and the women accidentally took their clothes off on a regular basis.

...and yes it was the Memphis demographic along with some meth ratchets from the surrounding area.

I think she spent some time in Nashville also. That's where I thought she was all along.  She was sentenced to 8 years, and has been denied parole a few times I think.

She's not capable of behaving or telling the truth. She's so screwed up, she would lie to a judge no matter what evidence they show her.

That's what I have seen also. They sit around and gossip and braid their hair and shit. When she first went in several years ago I heard it wasn't that bad. Now I've heard her mom saying she's having a harder time.

Then again she lies so bad you don't know. She also told her mom she was bit on the face by a brown recluse, and now she has to have surgery to remove a iud


With her personality, I'd imagine a mostly black prison would be pretty rough on her.

It probably is, I'm just going on the reputation of Memphis. It has a higher murder rate than Chicago.


Memphis is #6 on the list of cities with the highest black population at 63%.


Not trying to sound racist with this thread, but in a prison setting I wouldn't think that different  races get along or mix very well.

Maybe I'm just confused as to why you keep bringing up "mostly black" and "mostly white" in relation to the locations of the prison. While I suppose that it is possible, I've never heard of a prison system that simply transports every inmate to the prison that's closest to their hometown. The prison's proximity to Memphis likely has no bearing on its racial makeup. I don't think I've ever heard of a southern prison with a mostly white population either.
View Quote
I may be looking into it too much. I'm mainly going on the documentaries I've seen. In men's prisons they all seem to separate by race into different gangs. I don't know if she's a problem prisoner or what, but why would they move her from East Tennessee close to NC, all the way to Memphis.


And I'm sure prison location would have a lot to do with the ethnic population of the prisoners. I would assume a prison in southern Arizona would have a large Latino population.

I'd bet money that I'm not wrong.

Here's some stats.

She might have been moved for causing problems, being threatened, or due to positive or negqtive changes in her security classification.

One of these reasons is why inmates are "rode out".  One additional reason, medical reasons.  Sometimes they are moved closer to a treatment facility or if your state has such, a prison system "hospital".

Geography or proximity to the inmate's "home" has little or nothing to do with where they are housed.

OP since you describe her as a fucking loon, it's likely she was moved because she caused too much trouble for staff or other inmates.

Please tell me you and your wife do not send her any money.

No money from us. She's ripped off everyone she knows. Her mother sends some every now and then. But that's where she got her craziness from. She's just a worse version of her mother. My wife takes after her father.

It's weird how two people from the same mother and father can be on the opposite ends of the spectrum. Totally. My wife has never got along with her even in childhood.


I think she has hepatitis now, and had hpv from a long time ago. But you can't be sure. I'd have to lay eyes on the medical records before I'd believe her.
